Hakone Tozan Train
for the first time. On return fromHakone Glass Forest, the bus we took was caught in a heavy traffic jam. So we got off the bus and took Hakone Tozan Train fromOohiradai Station. The line from Goura to Hakone Yumoto is a switchback railway- I heard such mountain railways like that are rare. There are three switchback points, and Oohiradai Station is one of them. Every time the train stops at switchback points, the driver and the conductor switch.
I read in a magazine that we can enjoy beautiful hydrangeas
from Hakone Tozan Train in June. I saw the pictures. And I saw maple trees
- we can enjoy autumnal tints, too.
However, the train was so packed that we were tired out when we arrived at Hakone Yumoto.
